Transcription Notes:
[ ] Notes added to transcription.
[?] Original difficult to read.
[1] Small signature at the bottom of most pages of A2 rolls.
[2] Appears to be the remainder of Thomas Burbridge's land certificate notes.
[3] On the original the last 26 names, remarks and land certificate notes are
written in the Remarks column of the first names, making it difficult to
read. The transcription lists the names sequentially.
[4] Scratchpad arithmetic, in error.
[5] Initial "L." marked through.
- Names or initials within parentheses "()" in NAMES column are in a different hand.
- Land certificate notes were added later. The few notes started in name column have
been transcribed in right-hand column.
- Hand-drawn muster roll form.
